Howdy! Thank you to all who came out last weekend for
our Southern run--we had a blast! Thacker
Mountain was humbling, seeing Cary and Laurie from Blue Mountain was fabulous, and the
Southern fare was delectable--even the boiled peanut I tried in the van.
Here are a couple of pics of us eating crawfish; it
doesn't get better than this, folks.
